cal maps provide a useful abstraction for robotic navigation and planning. Although stochastic mapscan theoreticallybe learned using the Baum-Welch algorithm,without strong prior ...
Navigation during Minimally Invasive Surgery
(MIS) has recognized difficulties due to limited field-of-view,
off-axis visualization and loss of direct 3D vision. This can cause

Appearance-based localization compares the current image taken from a robot's camera to a set of pre-recorded images in order to estimate the current location of the robot. S...
unsupervised construction of topological maps, which provide an abstraction of the environment in terms of visual aspects. An unsupervised clustering algorithm is used to represent...
Abstract— This paper addresses the problem of localization and map construction by a mobile robot in an indoor environment. Instead of trying to build high-fidelity geometric ma...
